Yamaha CL/QL V5.0 Offers New Features and Expandability

BUENA PARK, Calif.(July 26, 2018)—Yamaha Professional Audio has announced Version 5.0 for Yamaha CL and QL Digital Audio Consoles. This no-charge update will elevate the industry standard mixing systems to the next level providing enhanced convenience, new features, and expandability.

In addition to support for more Dante devices, the V5.0 update adds to the consoles’ ever-growing arsenal of tools. The highly sought-after Portico 5045 Primary Source Enhancer by Rupert Neve Designs is now available in the Premium Rack. This device makes it easy to control background noise from microphone sources while enhancing clarity and increasing feedback margin, and is a valuable tool for houses of worship, stadiums, performance halls, and any other venue where feedback must be carefully controlled. Individual Fade Time functionality allows different fade times to be set for each fader, an important feature for users who need complex fader control, especially for musicals and other theatrical applications. Dante devices newly supported by V5.0 Future updates will provide support for other Dante devices.

“Yamaha CL and QL console updates continually contribute to a wide range of applications such as live music, corporate events, broadcast, and theater,” states Marc Lopez, director of marketing, Commercial Audio products. “And now, the Version 5.0 update not only adds new functionality, but through close collaboration with third parties, also provides connectivity with more Dante devices.”
